Re: pic: how not to use a suction cup

What if someone had used the suction cup in the kit this year for that?

Re: pic: how not to use a suction cup

We were just messing around with one :/

I mean, we just stuck it to my stomach, forhead, cheek, and hand. That could have been bad... But it workds

So, explain to me, how does it get that much of a suction? Ours was just enough to stick to you.

I'd like to say we hooked up the new compressor (from the KOP) to a battery charger, and turned the battery charger all the way up. However, we just used one of our batteries for power.

Re: pic: how not to use a suction cup

How many knew nicknames have come from this? I mean, really, who wouldn't immediately say something: "Hickey Head"

Maybe he would be asked if the Aliens had tried to "Suck his brains out"

Or someone might guess that he had been "Forheading with a vacuum cleaner lately?"

This is just too rich

Re: pic: how not to use a suction cup

Some one I went to Fire school with did that with a shop-vac and had almost his whole forehead look like that, and it stayed that way for about a week.

Re: pic: how not to use a suction cup

Ha, I'm kinda embarrassed to admit this, but we couldn't get this to work! We tried, but it just barely holds onto you- not nearly enough to do that! Did you wet it down first or something?

Re: pic: how not to use a suction cup

Might I ask, how bored did you have to be to decide that placing a suction cup was a good idea?

Of course, now you can claim to have made love to your robot. That could have some interesting ramifications...
